Customer XML Upload Format

 

go-arrow-red      For information on procedures and formatting rules that apply to all batch uploads, see Batch Upload Basics .

 

Keep these rules in mind:

      The customer upload file must begin with the standard XML version line such as:

      The root (first) tag for Customer files must be the customers tag, and the file can contain only one.

      The customer tag follows the customers tag and contains other identifier tags that describe an AR customer.

      The customer tag can be used multiple times.

      Each customer tag must have at least one address tag and multiple addresses can be defined.
